How did YOU find ThinkAtheist?

In the fall of 2009 I googled for information on Gobekli Tepe. It happens to be one of the oldest monuments/structures of civilization ever found, and news of it really shook the foundations of anthropology. One of the top listings was a great blog about what the Gobekli Tepe site meant in terms of the history of civilization and religion. In the comments section the ideas were flying back and forth and I wanted in to the discussion so I created an account on the site. That site was this site, ThinkAthiest.com! Now, a year and a half later, I'm a very active member.

I have favorite members whom I will watch closely for new posts/replies, but I really enjoy the little rhetorical gems that seem to pop up at random from much less conspicuous members from time to time.

I'm a freshly minted atheist. I stopped trying to make it all work about nine months ago and got over my fear of the word atheist around Christmas time. I went to a local Atheists meetup this Spring, which was really nice, but I kept missing the date or forgetting to go. After two or three months, I got super frustrated because when living in the Bible Belt the Gawdiness never really lets up. So after one last straw I figured I needed to find other people who would understand (or at least let me rant at them). Enter: le Google. Thank The Tubes for ThinkAtheist!!!
